Influence of Humeral Torsion on Interpretation of Posterior Shoulder Tightness Measures in Overhead Athletes
Clinical Journal of Sport Medicine, 09/10/09
Myers JB et al. – Although limb differences in clinical indicators of posterior tightness exist in healthy overhead athletes, these measures appear to be influenced by humeral torsion rather than soft tissue tightness. Once torsion is accounted for, the limb differences observed clinically were minimal in healthy overhead athletes. When possible, accounting for humeral torsion when interpreting clinical measures of posterior shoulder tightness may aid in treatment decisions.
